The Mystery of the Kingdom of God and Blood Covenant

 

The Mystery of the Kingdom of Heaven and Blood Covenant 

Label-Blood Covenant of Gods Rest 

Mark 4:11 And He said to them, "To you it has been given to you know the mystery of the kingdom of God; but to those who are outside, all things come in parables." 

Matthew 13:11 (NASB) Jesus answered them, "To you it has been granted to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been granted." 

Here, in these Scriptures we see that there are two types of people in the Life of Jesus and His teachings: those on the outside looking in, and those who understand mysteries of the kingdom.  At the same time we see there are two types of kingdoms that are mentioned in these Scriptures: the kingdom of God and the kingdom of heaven. 

These are a few thoughts I would like to share with you today.  The purpose of sharing these thoughts is to help us understand pure foundations of the Gospel of the kingdom: the kingdom of God and the kingdom of heaven.

As a disciple begins to understand that when a person is born again, their whole being is moved into the God-Head as One it is this place that we begin to understand Blood Covenant. It is in this place of being born again that the disciple is One in the God-Head.  This union of being One with the God-Head: God the Father, God the Holy Spirit, God the Son is the Kingdom of God represents you are One with God in Blood Covenant. Therefore, those who yield to Blood Covenant live a life of revealing who is actively yielding to Rest and Righteousness in the Kingdom of God.  

Blood Covenant releases Life out of the Kingdom of God, or our position of being One.  Blood Covenant releases the Light of Righteousness into the whole being of a disciple which is the Kingdom of Heaven.  Beloved, do you see the difference? You were fully born into the God-Head: spirit (One with God the Father); soul: mind, will, emotions, memory, intellect (One in the Holy Spirit); body: taste, touch, see, smell, hear (One with Jesus as we are His Body.) It is the work and purpose of the Blood to release Life and Light into the Body so that the Head, who is the fullness of the God-Head through Jesus, be revealed in the earth as it is in heaven in which the body is One.

For this reason we read in Mark 4:11, And He said to them, "To you it has been given to you know the mystery of the kingdom of God; but to those who are outside, all things come in parables." To live on the outside of being One with the God-Head is to live on the outside of being One in the revelation of Blood Covenant. 

At the same time we read our second verse, Matthew 13:11 (NASB) Jesus answered them, "To you it has been granted to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been granted." To understand the mysteries of the kingdom's foundation is to understand the foundation of being One in Blood Covenant. 

In order to increase in this life of being One, as our Foundation into the earth is learning to rely fully upon the Blood Covenant for all things that pertain to Life and God-Likeness in our lives. 

First, we must understand the importance of Blood Covenant because as the disciple of Blood Covenant speaks the Word of God the Holy Spirit only witnesses or testifies of the Blood, which is in the Spoken Word. 

I don't think we understand this and for that reason I will give an example.  When Moses was told to apply the Blood upon the Door posts of the homes for the spirit of death to passover these homes in the Old Testament, it was the Holy Spirit who testified of the Blood Covenant and responded to only the Blood Covenant. 

Jesus said, in John 6:63-65 "It is the Spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words I speak unto you, they are Spirit (testifies, or quickens) and they are Life. (Blood)  But there are some of you that believe not.  For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that believed not, and who should betray him.  And he said, therefore said I unto you, that no man come come unto me, except it were given unto him of My Father."  

To believe is to do more than simply believe or have faith; or trust in with full reliance of as it is often interpreted as those meanings.  These interpretations are for those who live on the outside not understanding the Blood Covenant of God.  To those who live as One in Blood Covenant understand that to believe is to live in Rest and Righteousness because it is the Blood Covenant that upholds them in this place releasing Life as their dependence and victory in the resurrection. The whole concept of believing in God needs to change to living out of what God believes. 

As we understand that Blood Covenant releases the Word and the Spirit in Life, then the Word will dwell among us. I love this word dwell, let's take a closer look together at the meaning. 

John 1:14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. 

σκηνόω skēnóō, skay-no'-o; from G436; to tent or encamp, i.e. (figuratively) to occupy (as a mansion) or (specially), to reside (as God did in the Tabernacle of old, a symbol of protection and communion):—dwell.

Revelation 21:3  And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.

Here we see Blood Covenant at work, "God with us: God the Father, God the Holy Spirit, God the Son."  This is a mystery of the Kingdom of God to keep Blood Covenant, or remain as One with God in a life that lives in the position of Rest & Righteousness.  

For another time and day, Jesus is the Word that dwells in you and because of Blood Covenant everything that Jesus spoke is seasoned to be released through your Life when you understand Blood Covenant. 

That is good news! 

I have posted some Scripture reflections in the comment reply box that I meditated upon after I shared this with you, today.  I pray they are a blessing to you.

Confession: Father, in the name of Jesus I am One with You in Blood Covenant in the fullness of the God-Head.  I acknowledge with my whole being: spirit, soul, and body, that Your Blood Covenant quickens my whole being and upholds me continually by Your Spirit quickening your Word in me.  I live in the Kingdom of God as One, and the Blood Covenant enlarges me continually in Life on the earth as it is in heaven.  Amen.
